06-Colossians: Religion Can't Save You P.1

Religion, properly understood in the Christian perspective, is a way by which we show our God love. It was never meant to save, but this has been an issue from the beginning. One of the areas where the early church struggled was where Jewish law fell within the salvation process. Just a couple of decades after Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection, one Jewish religious ritual has become the center point of controversy; the Apostle Paul will put this practice in its proper perspective. That practice...circumcision.
